Very pretty Dotty!

dotty- i love your idea! independence for our kids is so difficult. i pressured my first born to leave the nest and i'm very sure it was harder on me than him. i still feel bad about it. but he is grown up, has a good job, a loving wife, and a gorgeous little daughter. everything i could want for him. i still miss the young version of my children, being able to hold them on my lap, and kiss their heads, soothe their worries away. now i can't reach the boys' heads, but at least my daughter is my height! all three live away- 2 in texas, one in ny. i hate growing up!

Love it Dot

Dotty, like your idea and how you're planning to put it all together.

I agree Dot, darker, maybe just two shades of the green, you need more of a foundation to hold up. You are the foundation for your children as they shine in life.

Yes! But I am doing birthstone colors & mine is the peridot, which is light green. Hmmm, let me google peridot!!

Aha, google says my peridot can be as deep as olive green. Off to my "greens"box!

nancia

you could go with a brighter green, not necessarily darker.

Agreed. Too sleepy to make decisions tonight. Just finished my monochromatic piece. It is so-o hot, but I have to go out. I am out of milk & I will really want some for my morning coffee. Before I move the car. Ah, NYC!

Mine is the Periodot as well. FUnny there ya think, how about the 23rd, is yours the same date? I know we are a bit different on the year. It will be pretty with the darker shade. I am the same on coffee, got to have my creamer in it.
